This is the link to the Debian Apt How-To, starting at section 3.8 is an explanation of how to run a mixed system in Debian.
You cannot enable both stable (Lenny) and testing (Squeeze) and expect apt to work properly without setting up a apt.conf file
You need to set the default release, i.e., APT::Default-Release "version" and then pin those apps that you want to pull from testing. In Debian, this could be dangerous because newer versions of apps might need dependencies that haven't yet been incorporated into the older release.
Maybe if you explained why you want to enable the testing repos, we can give you a more detailed explanation of what to do. If you want to upgrade to testing, the instructions will be different than if you just want to pull some newer apps from testing. In fact, Debian stable has a backports repo that allows you to pull newer apps into stable, without enabling testing.0 -
Okay i dont want to do this.0
